Title: Window Runners
Post by: Rhyso on 26 August 2006, 10:52: atfer several visits to my local stealers (who shall remain nameless cos they are sh!ite and don't bother to tell me exactly what is wrong with my car!) i've found out from the guy who actually worked on my car that i require new window runners.

Cost - Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£182.13 :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

Anyone had their runners replaced and been hit with a similar eye-watering bill?????

BTW I'm not having the work done at that price!! Bit of silicon spary keeps it moving along nicely; fair bit cheaper than Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£182 :rolleyes:

oh well I've just written a letter to the stealers asking them to explain how it can happen on a window that's hardly used!!

not only that they left my handle disconnected and took a big chunk out of the grab handle on the door!!Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â :angry: and they neglected to tell me i couldn't have a courtesy car cos I'm under 25. found out the morning i dropped it off :angry: :angry: :angry:
